Hey, Lisa Whelchel was mentioned in my local newspaper today! My mom saw it and showed it to me. It was in the "Newsmakers" section and said:

Lisa Whelchel, who played spioled Blair Warner on "The Facts of Life," is experiencing firsthand how America has changed since Sept. 11. Whelchel, her husband, Steve, and their three children are spending a year touring the country in a recreational vehicle. She homeschools the kids, ages 9, 10, and 11. "We'll hit about every state except one or two. It wasn't our goal as much as to see the sights that America is famous for," she said. Whelchel was filming "The Facts of Life" reunion movie, airing Nov. 18 on ABC, in Toronto when the East Coast terrorist attacks occurred. "I had no idea until recently how much this has affected New Yorkers," Whelchel, 38, said Thursday by telephone from an Ohio truck stop. "Walking into this truck stop, they had pushed all the Indiana and Ohio T-shirts out of the way and all the big displays were of 'United We Stand' and 'God Bless America,'" she said. "That is the common bond all across America."

**In the year 2005, Lauren and I are driving to California to beg and pleed Lisa Whelchel and Nancy McKeon to become our mothers. She will become "Lauren McKeon" and I will become "Karli-wait a minute. I can't become 'Karli Cauble' AGAIN, can I???" Oh well, Just remember us as the "Cauble/McKeon kids!!"**

This song shows an important message

*Look at me, You may think you see who I really am, but you'll never know me. Every day it's as if I play a part. Now I see if I wear a mask, I can fool the world, but I cannot fool my heart. Who is that girl I see, staring straight back at me? When will my reflection show who I am inside? I am now in a world where I have to hide my heart, and what I believe in. But somehow, I will show the world what's inside my heart, and be loved for who I am. Who is that girl I see, staring straight back at me? Why is my reflection someone I don't know? Must I pretend that I'm someone else, for all time? When will my reflection show who I am inside? There's a heart that must be free to fly. That burns with a need to know the reason why. Why must we all conceal,
what we think, how we feel? Must there be a secret me, I'm forced to hide? I won't pretend that I'm someone else, for all time. When will my reflection show who I am inside, when will my reflection show who I am inside?*

*I Pledge of Allidgence to Lisa Whelchel, the best actress in the world. And to the republic, for which she stands, one nation, loving Lisa, forever and ever, Amen*

Sorry no pic, but yes, it is in the Springfield newspaper, as a matter of fact. It's on the 2nd page in the front section.

Hope you find it and enjoy!
